True, but that's not all humans are. They are also social. They are also creative. At least some of them are also deep logical thinkers. So...

That might not be the catastrophe you make it out to be, because humans are more than just that. Humans that have jobs that only expect them to be high-level signal processors are, I suspect, rather rare, maybe even nonexistent.

Social intelligence and creative tasks are signal processing tasks...
Again: They are not only signal processing tasks. Not even primarily signal processing.

You seem to have a very reductive view of humans. I reject the view that humans are only signal processors.
